Nuclear Option Press Conference

March 16, 2005

 

Sierra Club participated in a media event with others from the Maine Fair and Independent Federal Courts Coalition to encourage Senators Olympia Snowe and Susan Collins to oppose the "nuclear option." The Portland event was held in front of the Federal Court House. Another event happened simultaneously in Bangor by the Maine Women's Lobby.

Coalition partners that participated in the events included: Portland & Bangor Branches of NAACP; Equality Maine; Family Planning Association of Maine; Maine People's Alliance; Maine Citizen Leadership Fund; Mabel Wadsworth Women's Health Center; Maine Women's Lobby; Houlton Band of Maliseet Indians; Maine AFL-CIO; Maine Women's Labor Institute and the American Association of University Women, Maine Chapter.
